The entitlement class might be disappointed with Obama (as seen in the latest polls), but they will never vote for a Republican.
As the entitlement class grows, so does Obama’s chances for reelection.
Ultimately the ‘entitlement class’ can only exist until the rest of society stops agreeing to keep paying the bills. The domination of society by an entitlement class will always only last for a finite period, after which the earners will quit funding them. In the USSR this happened because the productive members of society just quit being productive. Once that happened it was only a matter of when the end of the USSR would come, not if. The other way this can happen is if the earners just refuse to pay into the treasury. That's very extreme, but so is government confiscation and redistribution of the fruit's of one’s labors. Hopefully sanity will prevail and we will get back to the roots of what has always made the US exceptional.
“As the entitlement class grows, so does Obama’s chances for reelection.”
Bingo.
And his strategy is unassailable- the media will deny it even exists. There is no counter-strategy to what doesn’t exist, no PR strategy anyway.
